Reaper's Word

Clair passed out with Isaiah's words ringing in her head. Why was he being so harsh with them? Where had he taken her? She woke sometime later, looking up. It appeared that the sun was about to set. Her head was a little sore but otherwise she felt okay.

Everything that happened came back to her, well most of it. She recalled Isaiah taking her to a bathroom. That he'd told her not to leave this room. She sat up feeling a bit chilled and realized she had no clothes. She pulled the covers from the large bed and wrapped herself in them. She didn't want to go looking in here for clothes.

The bedroom area had a large four poster bed in it. Which was against one wall. The end facing the sliding wooden doors and the rest of the room. In here were two doors. One that went to a bathroom and the other a closet. The room past the bedroom area had a huge fireplace and a very long sofa in the center. The ceiling was mainly windows, and to her left was a door. The only one in the stone walls and to the right was a round alcove with window seats.

Clair moved over to them and sat down pulling her feet up and the blanket closer to her. This room felt like Isaiah. It was where he stayed when nowhere else in the house. She knew without a doubt that this part of the house would act for him, not her. When she'd looked at the door, the oppressive feeling that hit her felt like a crushing weight. She knew she would regret trying to even touch the door. This part of the house was not her friend.

She looked at the darkening grounds from her seat. From here the entire yard was visible toward the gravel road that brought people to their death. The mountains a backdrop. She thought to try and leave again. Inside she knew that if she did it would cause something far worse then she would face shortly. She'd rather face it head on, not like a coward. Besides, what was she waiting for anyways? Living a couple more days until he caught her again? Right now she didn't want to feel like this anymore or trying. She wasn't sure if it was all her, the drug or a mix.

She heard the door open a short bit later as she was lost in her thoughts. She kept looking out the window. A helplessness settling in her. She didn't think that she was going to be leaving this room alive. She closed her eyes for a moment pushing back the tears and anguish.

She'd done so well and to now lose because someone had gotten a stupid idea in his head. It all just felt hopeless at that moment. No reason to prolong it she guessed so she hadn't tried to run this time. Maybe it also had to do with whatever she'd been stuck with, but not completely she knew it.

Clair finally turned her head and looked over to where Isaiah was standing. Near the end of the sofa farthest from her. He was watching her, from here she couldn't tell if his eyes had color or not, but he didn't feel upset or angry. More relieved, excited.

"Come here Clair." He spoke after a moment and she looked up at him.

"If I say no?"

"It's your choice as to how I deal with you." Clair kept the blanket around her and stood, moving over to him. She stayed about five feet from him and looked at him. He pointed for her to move up the steps to the bedroom area and she turned, figuring she'd rather walk than be dragged.

He followed behind her removing his shirt and dropping it. The top of his pants were undone but he didn't take them off yet. Clair turned looking at him, her gaze taking him in. Even if he'd been human she'd have had no hope of even trying to fight him. He was solid muscle, his arms chest and stomach defined by it. It was deceptive when he wore clothes as he looked to be more slender than he was.

"I have a proposition for you Clair."

"It's going to be the last one isn't it?" She asked not wanting to be played with. Not wanting any false hope no matter if it would make her feel better.

"I guess to be fair. I already told you that this one has never been truly fulfilled. I've yet to meet one here that even comes close." Isaiah looked at her, she looked small and terrified with the blanket wrapped around her hiding her body from view. He let her have the small moment to feel an illusion of safety. As it was clear she was ready to face her end.

"Then what is it you'd have of me?" She asked and he stepped forward and took hold of her chin, forcing her face up to look at him. She didn't flinch away and she looked at him. There was this real deeper excitement he felt at how her gaze met his. She didn't look truly afraid in that moment. Maybe anxious nor did she flinch from his touch. She was something.

"I want you Clair. I could have you without giving you anything but I feel that an incentive makes it better. Drop the blanket Clair." She hesitated for a moment and let go of it. This allowed him to step closer to her, and there was panic in her eyes then but also a cold determination. He lowered his head his cheek brushing hers as he moved his mouth next to her ear. He inhaled just for a moment to take her scent in.

"If you can fully satisfy me Clair I will give you one week free of me and mine. Immunity from any real harm we might cause you. You would be free to go anywhere in the house that you please. Take or do anything you please from it."

"So much for one thing." She said with an unsteady voice. "And all I have to do is give myself to you. Let you do to me as you please to my body?" She didn't know what she could possibly do differently than any other before her, but there wasn't much of a choice. Either she took it, or she didn't have a chance no matter how slim. Obviously they were talking sex. She was not experienced in it, she had no idea what he was expecting.

"Yes." He felt the anticipation build in his body. He didn't doubt that she would do a very good job in pleasing him, just not completely. She would let him do what he wanted, or what he told her. He was sure of it. That other part of him, what he really was, was impossible to satisfy it seemed. It just didn't like any of the females. It had found Athena pleasing, but she fit the bill perfectly. Clair felt very similar yet different. So his inhuman side was paying attention.

"Okay." She said feeling tears choking her. She was going to let him use her so she could live. So she could have a few moments of peace. God how she wished to be anywhere but here. Anywhere but this moment in time where she felt that she had finally sunk to her lowest. She never thought she'd say yes to a man like this, that was for sure.

to hold onto. To focus on and make her body respond. She was very glad for her talent to sense what others were feeling. She let it affect her this time. It was strong, his want, need, and arousal. It was shocking in its intensity enough that her own body responded to it. She didn't expect him to feel that excited

Clair met his gaze this time because it was something he wanted. Whatever he wanted, silent or not, she was going to do she decided.

He said so she did as he asked. He crushed his mouth to hers as he slammed his body into hers. Clair cried out into his mouth in pain. She hadn't expected such a sharp slicing and burning pain. It hurt horribly. He was a large man and she wasn't exactly one

Forced her body to respond. She tried to push that pain to the side. It was hard, but she again focused on his desire and used that to make her body relax. Nothing that he did not want and she kept her senses feeling what he desired. He reached a hand between them touching her near where they were joined and she jumped. An unexpected moan coming

moving over hers like he was starved for the taste of her. He brought his body back into hers rather forcefully but not as harshly as the first time. Clair couldn't help but gasp as he did this. He'd moved his body from hers again slowly and slammed back into her. Her muscles gripping him tightly. She closed her eyes

look away from him. His body moving faster in hers. She felt the need to touch him suddenly. She was aware that just laying there wasn't going to satisfy him the way he probably wanted. Clair moved slightly, bending one leg holding it against his side. She took his one hand and moved it down to the side of her thigh. Her mouth moving over the front of his neck softly. Not needy or desire filled. Just feather light to the side

soft moan. Her hand moved up his chest to the side of his neck opposite of where her mouth skimmed. She slid her tongue up the side of his neck just like he'd done to her so long ago. He clearly liked it with the response she got. The bite of his nails and the way he started to move his

He moved an arm to hold her body like that, pressed tightly to him. Her reaction was incredibly satisfying. He loved the feel of her body pressed up along his. Her hips pressed harshly to his and her soft breasts against his chest. She was a perfect little female in his opinion. Her body gripping his like tight silk just added to it.

There was a tightness to his body. After a moment a slight shiver going down his spine. His muscles relaxing a bit. He was breathing harshly and so was she. He dropped his head slightly and brought one hand to her hair gripping it for a second painfully, while burying his face in it with what sounded like a growl. After a moment he gave a slight almost laugh and raised his head.
